Central Suriname Nature Reserve, Nature reserve in central Suriname.

The Central Suriname Nature Reserve spans 1.6 million hectares of primary tropical rainforest with granite domes, rivers, and mountain ranges.

The reserve emerged in 1998 by combining three protected areas: Ralleighvallen, Tafelberg, and Eilerts de Haan gebergte, receiving UNESCO World Heritage status in 2000.

Research stations within the reserve support scientific studies of tropical ecosystems while maintaining connections with surrounding indigenous communities.

Guided tours and expeditions provide access to the reserve, requiring visitors to arrange transportation and accommodations through authorized organizations.

The reserve contains Julianatop, reaching 1,230 meters as Suriname's highest peak, and houses over 5,000 plant species alongside eight primate species.

GPS coordinates: 3.92424,-56.48783
